TGIF Weekly 27

T . G. I. F.Weekly

How
this works: YOU, the reader get to help me pick out my upcoming reads
and reviews. Before it was to help me choose which book to read next
but I quickly found myself behind on books that were due back to the
library and review commitments. So, instead of choosing of having to
read a specific book every week, I will instead let you help pick what
book I will post a review for next week. Vote by leaving a comment for
what you want to see my review for out of the 3 choices. Most voted on
by end of day Tuesday will be posted between Wednesday and Friday
(before the next TGIF post). I might even post more than 1 review for
these depending on how many vote and on what other posts I have set up
(especially other reviews). Also past books (if not reviewed) may come
up in future TGIFs.

Also
I have a poll up on the right column to vote for my upcoming reads.
The more votes the higher the chances of that book being read sooner and
the higher the chances of a review soon. I will change the books listed
for the polls every couple weeks so be on the lookout for changes to
the list. Old books may remain until read but this way I can hopefully
better cater to reader's interest. :)

It was posted a bit last minute as when I was getting ready to post I realized I never posted my review for the first book of the series! So sorry for the delay and enjoy the reviews.

"A working-girl romance

In
order to help her father, Chiwa Takanashi agrees to an arranged
marriage with the company president, Hokuto Mamiya—a man she doesn’t
know—at the request of Hokuto’s grandfather. Chiwa believes the
arrangement isn’t binding, but her new partner seems to think otherwise.
Can two strangers living together find their way to a happy marriage?!

Chiwa
Takanashi has married a total stranger—company president Hokuto
Mamiya—to get her father out of debt. Hokuto has pledged fidelity to
her, but then the tabloids break the news of him dating a famous

confiding her worries to Yu Yagami, a handsome new company recruit. Is
the contract they signed the only thing holding their marriage together?"

"Chelsea Adams has visions. But they have no place in a courtroom.

As a juror for a murder trial, Chelsea must rely only on the evidence. And thiscircumstantial evidence is strong—Darren Welk killed his wife.

Or did he?

The
trial is a nightmare for Chelsea. The other jurors belittle her
Christian faith. As testimony unfolds, truth and secrets blur. Chelsea’s
visiting niece stumbles into peril surrounding the case, and Chelsea
cannot protect her. God sends visions—frightening, vivid. But what do
they mean? Even as Chelsea finds out, what can she do? She is helpless,
and danger is closing in. . . .

Masterfully crafted, Dread Champion is a novel in which appearances can deceive and the unknown can transform the meaning of known facts. One man’s guilt or innocence is just a single link in a chain of hidden evil . . . and God uses theunlikeliest of people to accomplish his purposes."
